Alas, me M76 crate is booting with a screen full of dump, and once with a ram
error msg.  I think it is trying to tell me a ram stick is going south.  Is 
there a
test parameter in the M76 rom that will do a better ram check than the initial
power up check?  It passes that, fine, but randomly dies on boots after that 
time.
I unseated and reseated the sticks, so it probably is not one of the 
connectors.
I changed drives, so it is not the drives.  The dump seems to occur at the 
same
ram location, so that would tend to suggest a bad or marginal ram stick.

Any ideas as to how to test the ram?

Thanks
